Acer simply unveiled a variety of recent mini-LED and OLED gaming screens, together with the Acer Predator Z57, which is a colossal 57-inches in measurement and features a huge 7,680 x 2,160 decision. It’ll even run all these pixels at as much as 120Hz, for a clean in addition to detailed view.

The Acer Predator Z57 additionally features a curved panel with a 1000-inch radius (1000R) curve – not fairly as tight because the LG 34GS95QE‘s 800R curve however nonetheless sufficient to mission the perimeters of the panel almost a foot in entrance of the center. On demo on the CES 2024 commerce present, we obtained palms and eyes on with the brand new panel.

Powering the panel is mini-LED expertise that gives 2304 backlighting zones for extremely granular management of brightness and distinction. At the least that’s the speculation. The demo unit Acer had setup wasn’t notably clearly showcasing this distinction, with the panel wanting prefer it was working in fized backglight mode with a fairly washed out, gray look to the picture, as you possibly can see in our hand on pictures.

Nonetheless, dangerous demo setup apart, there must be rather a lot to love about this enormous show, in case you care primarily about decision and visible spendour over blazing quick refresh fee. The panel nonetheless does 120Hz however that received’t do for esports these days, and good luck working esports video games at that decision!

On the rear of the monitor is a token ring of RGB lighting whereas an enormous V-shaped stand is require to maintain this dispay from toppling over. Together with the depth of the display screen, you’re going to want a bigger than standard desk to accmodate this show.

Maybe probably the most attention-grabbing factor about this show is its speaker setup, which consists of a big speaker bar that hangs unde the show. We’re all for including high quality audio system to screens however these ones are solely rated to 5W for the pair, which doesn’t appear all that highly effective – they sounded a bit beefier than most inexpensive monitor audio system however didn’t blow us away.

The ultimate pair of recent screens are the 2 new OLEDs which might be each 3,440 x 1,440 resolutio screens with 240Hz refresh charges, with the primary distinction between the 2 being the display screen measurement – 39-inch X39 versus 34-inch X34 X. Sadly, these weren’t obtainable for us to check but.
